Lawn care and tick control built for Yonkers yards

Yonkers is hilly, dense, and older than most of the county. Neighborhoods like Crestwood, Colonial Heights, Park Hill, and Lawrence Park have modest lots, sloped yards, and trees that predate the houses.

Slopes shed water and fertilizer, and shade from neighboring homes and trees is constant, so Yonkers lawns need products that stay put and grass that tolerates less sun. Tibbetts Brook Park and the Saw Mill River corridor keep mosquitoes and ticks in the picture.

Lawn Care

Lawn care in Yonkers

On a Yonkers slope, the challenge is keeping nutrients and seed in place long enough to work.

  • Slow-release granular fertilization that resists washing downhill in heavy rain.
  • Aeration and overseeding timed for early fall, when rainfall is gentler and germination is fast.
  • Shade-tolerant seed blends for yards boxed in by neighboring houses and mature trees.

Yes. We adjust product choice and timing for slopes so fertilizer and seed stay in place, and we will tell you if part of a hill is better off as ground cover than grass.

Once the application is dry, typically one to two hours. Reduction in mosquito activity is usually noticeable within a day or two.
